Attitude of Worship 1


Hello Everyone,
David wrote in Psalm 27:4                                                                           
One thing I ask of the LORD, this is what I seek:
that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the LORD and to seek him in his temple

I am a firm believer that attitude determines altitude.
Attitude really matters. It can make the difference between a good day and a bad day, a good marriage and a bad marriage, and most likely between a good life and a bad life.
Chuck Swindoll says, "Words can never adequately convey the incredible impact of our attitude toward life. The longer I live the more convinced I become that life is 10% what happens to us and 90% how we respond to it."

Have you ever considered that your choice of attitude even affects your worship experience? In Psalm 27, David begins by expressing his confidence in God.
David is declaring his faith in God even while being attacked by his enemies. (Psalm 27:1-3).
 1 The LORD is my light and my salvation— whom shall I fear?
The LORD is the stronghold of my life— of whom shall I be afraid?
2 When evil men advance against me to devour my flesh, when my enemies and my foes attack me, they will stumble and fall.
3 Though an army besiege me, my heart will not fear; though war break out against me, even then will I be confident.
Things that would cause fear in someone who did not trust God, only makes David want to be closer to God.
 "One thing I ask of the Lord, this is what I seek," he says, "that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the Lord and to seek Him in His temple."
As we press in lets develop an Attitude of Worship.
